Thanks guys.  Yes it is. One year today and what a year it has been.  Len said he actually slept some last night and the tightness in his chest from his cold doesn't seem as bad. His cough sounds a lot looser too. Thank God. We go to DC tomorrow for 1 year checkup. I'll post when we get home. I want you guys to know how much I really appreciate all your thoughts and prayers throughout this journey we have been on. Thank you. Kathy  |

If you can smile when things go wrong, you have someone in mind to blame.
Lead me not into temptation, I can find it myself.
Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass, it's about learning how to dance in the rain.
Some mistakes are too much fun to only make once.
